Pivotal Learning: Teaching Social Studies in a Changing World

New York State Council for the Social Studies 85th Annual Convention: Pivotal Learning: Teaching Social Studies in a Changing World

March 9-11Albany 

"Teaching Historical Thinking and Culturally Responsive Content Using Local Primary Sources Accessed through Digital Repositories"

Digital repositories open a plethora of resources, but it can be difficult to know where to start. Consider The Source offers a curated set of primary source materials with accompanying lesson plans and activities. NY Heritage and NYS Historic Newspapers offer a broader range of keyword-searchable materials and online exhibits. This session will demonstrate how to navigate and use these free, diverse, and local resources in the classroom.

Presented by Ryan Perry, Digital Collections Librarian, Central New York Library Resources Council and Jordan Jace, Assistant Director of Education and Development, Archives Partnership Trust, and State Coordinator, New York Council for History Education
